Motor Boats In Fog At National Carnival Series
Sixteen motor boats started in a delayed series to decide championships arranged by the National Motor Boat Carnival promoters.

Auto racing feud over international race definition grows
Dispute flares between the American Automobile Association and the Automobile Club of America after the Motor Racing Association cites a 24 hour Brighton Beach event as international. The ACA refuses to withdraw its sanction, prompting calls for a new conference to interpret the peace clause. The issue hinges on whether foreign owned cars in national races count as international entries. The ACA grants consent for the Motor Parkway Sweepstakes but bars foreign owned cars in the Vanderbilt Cup due to European club bans. The Grand Prize Savannah entry is announced for the American Locomotive Company with driver L. J. Bergdoll. Tangeman notes two Lancia cars in the Bay State endurance run.
